Appendix B. EVM32 Installation
EVM32 Description
The EVM32 is a family of I/O modules (or “bricks”) that is sold as accessories to the 6K
Controllers. The purpose of the EVM32 is to provide more I/O than the 6K offers onboard.
Up to eight DIN-rail mountable EVM32 bricks can be connected in a serial chain to the 6K.
Each EVM32 brick can hold from 1 to 4 of these I/O SIM boards in any combination (each
SIM board provides 8 I/O points, for a total of 32 I/O points per I/O brick):
• Digital inputs
• Digital outputs
• Analog inputs
Order an EVM32 brick and up to four I/O SIM boards per brick (see table below).
